We provide locked collection bins for your job sites or offices, and our team collects and shreds documents on a regular schedule.

Hard Drive & Digital Media Destruction
Construction and trade businesses often store important project and client data electronically. Simply deleting files isn’t enough – we provide hard drive destruction services to ensure all digital information is securely and permanently erased.
Off-Site Shredding
Construction and trade businesses deal with sensitive documents like blueprints, contracts, and client records. Off-site shredding securely destroys these materials without disrupting your workflow. Documents are collected, taken to a secure facility, and shredded to protect your business and client information. It’s an efficient and reliable way to ensure compliance and safeguard data.
The Unique Record Management Challenges of Construction & Trades
Businesses in construction and trades face distinct challenges in managing their records, often due to the project-based nature of their work and stringent industry requirements:
Project-Centric Documentation
Each project generates a vast array of documents, including blueprints, schematics, contracts, change orders, progress reports, inspection reports, and close-out documents. Corrigan Records Management is equipped to scan documents and securely store these vital project records.
Regulatory & Legal Compliance
Adherence to building codes, safety regulations (e.g., OSHA, state safety acts), environmental laws, and contractual obligations necessitates meticulous recordkeeping. Long retention periods for liability are common.
Safety Records
Critical for worker safety and legal defense, these include daily safety logs, incident reports, training certifications, and equipment maintenance records.
Security of Proprietary Information
Protecting intellectual property, bid strategies, and sensitive client information is essential.
We enhance your record management
Effective records management is crucial for construction businesses to organize, protect, and maintain access to key project, employee, and operational records throughout their lifecycle. It ensures compliance with industry regulations, enhances data security, and enables quick document retrieval—streamlining operations and improving project management. A structured records management system minimizes the risk of data breaches, supports audits and legal requirements, and reduces storage costs by systematically disposing of outdated records. For the construction industry, this approach fosters trust, accountability, and the secure handling of sensitive information.
We can assist with integrating digitized documents into your existing project management software or enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems.
